    Guide Data Running Out

    I just noticed I have no guide data on either of my 2 TiVo's after 5th Feb. Daily calls say they succeeded with data to 12th Feb. Anyone else have this issue?

    Hopefully Wibble can help out soon (please).

    For now, a workaround that I set up last year is still available if anyone is really desperate
    [edited: see latest post]

    It's only does 17 of the freeview channels (extendible, if you can use a unix editor), and even then some channels do not show up immediately for me for some unknown reason - but it may be worth a try. Good luck.

    Hi, downloaded the quickfix, but found an error in the readme, has wget ftp://130.216.208.118/mnas002/tivo/t...vguide-001.tgz
    - should be file tvguide-v001.tgz.
    On running, it gets the freeview.xml fine (1.9mb), but then has error:

    mv: /hack/tvguide/freeview.xml: No such file or directory
    Formatting tivo data file for TV1 ...
    ./generate-tivoEPG-and-load.sh: awk: command not found
    Loading tivo data file for TV1 ...
    adding channels


    Creating station list
    adding programs
    ./generate-tivoEPG-and-load.sh: expr: command not found
    Formatting tivo data file for TV1 ...
    ./generate-tivoEPG-and-load.sh: awk: command not found

    any ideas?

    I think I've fixed the errors regarding 'mv' and README.
    The awk and expr tools should be in /devbin/ however I've now bundled them in the *.tgz file (in case they cannot be found).
    So try blowing it away ('rm -r /hack/tvguide') and starting afresh.
    Let me know of any more issues.

    yep, that's fixed it. thanks! (one more small tweak - , tvguide-v001.tgz for the tar command too)

    Its running now, getting the errtmbackgroundholdoff, but that's normal for tvload.tcl.
    (for others that get this, just wait and it should continue).

    Not sure if I mentioned, but I can pull ALL the sky guide data (all channels) from my sat card in my pc. Will get around to this
    at some stage, so we can load all data if needed. Well it used to work anyway.

    Cheers,
    Divxmaster
